What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Habitat
- Statistics
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Habitat, Home range, Statistics and Species richness.
Predation, Habitat fragmentation, Occupancy, Peromyscus and Community structure are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study.
His Habitat research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Foraging, Mode and Interspecific competition.
Microtus is closely connected to Sigmodon hispidus in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Home range.
His Species richness study incorporates themes from Landscape ecology and Epizootiology.
His research investigates the connection between Sampling and topics such as Population size that intersect with problems in Statistical power.
His most cited work include:
- Testing For Independence of Observations in Animal Movements (701 citations)
- Absent or undetected? Effects of non-detection of species occurrence on wildlife-habitat models (601 citations)
- Influence of sampling interval on estimates of home-range size (382 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Habitat, Predation, Foraging and Occupancy.
His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Biological dispersal, Metapopulation and Seed dispersal.
His Seed dispersal research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Acorn, Botany and Agronomy.
His research integrates issues of Range, Abiotic component, Fragmentation and Deciduous in his study of Habitat.
The concepts of his Foraging study are interwoven with issues in Sciurus carolinensis and Peromyscus.
His study on Occupancy is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Habitat destruction.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (66.67%)
- Habitat (20.63%)
- Predation (12.17%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Ecology (66.67%)
- Habitat (20.63%)
- Agronomy (8.99%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Habitat, Agronomy, Predation and Cover crop.
His Ecology research incorporates elements of Population density and Biological dispersal, Seed dispersal.
His Seed dispersal study combines topics in areas such as Habitat fragmentation and Competition.
His work on Habitat destruction as part of general Habitat research is often related to Worm-eating warbler, thus linking different fields of science.
His Predation research includes themes of Peromyscus, Foraging, Seed predation and Weed.
The various areas that Robert K. Swihart examines in his Cover crop study include Agroecosystem, Vole and Microtus.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Seed fate and decision‐making processes in scatter‐hoarding rodents (85 citations)
- Eastern gray squirrels are consistent shoppers of seed traits: insights from discrete choice experiments. (13 citations)
- Cascading effects of forested area and isolation on seed dispersal effectiveness of rodents on subtropical islands (10 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Habitat
- Statistics
Robert K. Swihart mostly deals with Ecology, Habitat, Seed predation, Weed and Predation.
His research combines Biological dispersal and Ecology.
While the research belongs to areas of Habitat, Robert K. Swihart spends his time largely on the problem of Seed dispersal, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Habitat fragmentation and Foraging.
In his study, Peromyscus, Foxtail and Agriculture is inextricably linked to Crop, which falls within the broad field of Seed predation.
His studies examine the connections between Weed and genetics, as well as such issues in Population density, with regards to Ecosystem services, Spatial variability and Generalist and specialist species.
Robert K. Swihart combines subjects such as Range, Niche and Resistance with his study of Habitat destruction.
